Lindows Partners With KooBox For Porn-Free PC

Share This article

Lindows.com said it had collaborated with KooBox.com to develop an all-in-one family PC with a built-in adult content blocker.

The $449 KooBox ships with an LCD monitor stand which also contains the main PC chassis and its CPU, hard drive, and other components. As might be expected, the box ships with a Lindows 4.0 operating system, complete with the SurfSafe add-on tool that serves to block adult content.

A Lindows.com spokeswoman said that KooBox is a separate company, and Lindows does not have a stake in it.

“We think that porn blocking will be a big thing for families,” the Lindows.com spokeswoman added.

KooBox also offers a deluxe version of the PC, with triple the hard drive capaacity, more RAM, a CD-RW and DVD-ROM drive, and upgraded speakers, all for $669. A full list of specifications can be found at the KooBox web site.

The KooBox ships with a 90 day warranty, although users may purchase a 24/7 “premium” warranty for an additional $59, including at-home next-day technical support.
